Preparing the Wings:

Wings are made up of the following three parts: the wing tip, the middle section and the drumette. While you can barbecue the entire chicken wing, separating it makes the process easier. Make use of a sharp knife to remove the wing tip. Since this piece has little meat, you can do without it. Next, you need to separate the drumette from the joint.

Seasoning the Wings:

You can either season the wings with a wet marinade or go for a dry rub. If you plan to use a wet marinade, place the wings in a container and then use the marinade. Allow the wings to soak in the marinade for at least an hour. However, if you wish to go for dry rubbing, you can just add it to the chicken wings before barbecuing.

Create a two-zone fire:

In the next step, you need to light the coals and place them on one side of the BBQ. Make sure to leave the other side empty. This way, you can sear the chicken wings on the hot side and allow them to cook on the cool side.

Searing the chicken wings:

The chicken wings need to be seared directly over the coal on the BBQ. Ensure that all the sides are seared well and have a browned skin. Keep in mind that the chicken wings burn quickly especially if the seasoning has a high content of sugar. Keep a close watch and turn them to prevent scorching.

Place the chicken wings on the cooler side:

After the chicken appears brown and crispy, move them to the cooler side of the BBQ. You can now put on the lid over the BBQ and allow the wings to cook until an internal temperature of 74°C. The wings may take about 8 to 10 minutes to be cooked.

Adding sauce:

If you wish to add a sauce or glaze to your chicken, do so in the last few minutes of the cooking process. Apply the sauce and put on the lid again to allow the sauce to caramelize.

Ready to serve:

Your chicken wings can be served right off the barbecue. You can serve them with celery sticks or sauces.

You won’t have to worry about choosing the right equipment when you are buying or hiring your smoker from Dizzy Lamb. Our smokers are charcoal fired.

Whether you are planning a large get-together or a romantic evening, we have a smoker to suit every purpose.

Here’s the recipe for smoked baby back ribs. It yields 6 servings.
Ingredients:

Baby back ribs – 2 racks (about 1.5 kg each)
Light brown sugar – 60ml
Chilli powder – 20ml
Paprika – 20ml
Ground cumin –10ml
Mustard powder – 5ml
Salt
Lemon – 1 (cut into halves)
Apple – 1 (cut it into 4 parts)
Apple juice or Cider – 250ml
Worcestershire sauce – 40ml
Apple cider vinegar – 20ml
Vegetable oil – For brushing grill grates
Smoking wood chips – Approximately 2kg to 2.5kg

Preparation:

Step 1: Remove the rib membrane. Place the ribs in such a way that the meat side is down. Using a paring knife, loosen the membrane from the top. Once you loosen the top of the membrane, you’ll be able to hold it in your fingers. Peel off the entire membrane using your fingers at this stage.

Step 2: Make a mixture of brown sugar, paprika, chilli powder, cumin powder and mustard powder. Add 40g salt to the mixture and mix well again to ensure the salt is evenly distributed.

Step 3: Take the halved lemon. Rub the halves on all sides of the ribs. Now, rub the ribs in the spice mixture prepared as mentioned above.

Step 4: Place the spice-laced ribs in a resealable plastic bag or a roasting pan. Keep this in a refrigerator for 2 hours.

Step 5: Ready your grill for smoking. Start by immersing wood chips in water for an hour. Later, fill the smoker box with a handful of woodchips and an apple.

Step 6: Meanwhile, remove the refrigerated ribs half-an-hour before smoking. Mix the Worcestershire sauce, apple juice and vinegar in a spray bottle and shake well.

Step 7: Check the grill temperature. Once it reaches 1000 C, brush its grates lightly with vegetable oil. Place the ribs on the grill side that is cooler with the meat-side facing up. Spray the juice mixture on the ribs. Close the grill and let the smoking last for an hour.

Step 8: Add another handful of wood chips, and an apple to the smoker box. Turn the ribs so that the meat-side is down. Spray the juice mixture on this side and let the ribs get cooked for another hour.

Step 9: Repeat step 7 every one hour until the ribs turn dark brown and tender. The meat should start shrinking, moving away from the bones. Remove the ribs from the grill at this stage. Leave them aside for 5 minutes before slicing.

Serve your smoked baby back ribs juicy, tasty and hot!

Recipe 3 : Lamb on the Spit

Traditionally Lamb on the spit is often cooked on special occasions and at Easter time - the air is filled with the smell of lamb or kid roasting on spits. Some are modern motorized rotisseries, requiring little supervision, and others are turned by hand for hours, with family and friends taking turns, all the while enjoying the camaraderie of the day.

This recipe is for lamb on a spit, cooked over charcoal on our Heavy Duty Spit.
Ingredients:

1 Whole Lamb, Dressed
Olive Oil
Lemon juice
Sea salt
Pepper
Crushed Greek Oregano)
Crushed Garlic

Preparation:

Tip: The best size lamb for spit roasting is generally around 10 – 12 kgs. Cooking time is 3-5 hours.

Start the fire about 2 hours before cooking in your Dizzy Lamb Heavy Duty Spit.

Sprinkle the inside of the lamb liberally with salt and pepper and rub in. Lay the lamb on a flat surface and pass the spit bar between the hind legs, through the stomach cavity and out through the mouth. The lamb's spine should be straight along the line of the spit bar. Make sure the prongs are attached to the chest and buttocks of your lamb. Tie the front and hind legs to the leg holders. Clamp the middle of the lamb to the spit along the spine. Sew the stomach cavity closed with butcher's twine or stainless steel wire (use pliers). The lamb should be attached securely and not slip when turned.

With hands rub the entire lamb with lemon juice and oregano.

Place the spit over the fire and spread the coals so they are under the shoulder and thigh (thickest parts).

Make a mix of olive oil, oregano, pepper and sea salt and keep by the lamb along with a clean brush to baste the lamb as it cooks,

At the beginning, the lamb needs to be positioned at the spits highest position, this is required for approx 1 hour then the lamb can be lowered as required. Once the fire settles and the lamb is golden all around and starting to crisp, you will notice that the lamb will start to sweat and juice will start to drip from the carcass.

Replenish charcoal as needed. Brush occasionally with the oil mixture.

Cooking time will depend on the size of the lamb. The skin on the legs and chest of the lamb will crisp and crack open. The color should be a deep brown.

Testing: With a meat thermometer, internal temperature at the thickest part should be around 65°C for medium. If you don't have a meat thermometer, stick a knife or skewer into the thigh (thickest part). The juice should run clear.

Lift the spit with the lamb and place on carving surface. Remove wire, ties, clamps, or straps, and carve.

Recipe 4: Spit Roasted Suckling Pig

INGREDIENTS

10 12 kg Suckling Pig
10 Crushed Garlic Cloves
5 Rosemary Sprigs
5 Thyme Sprigs
Olive oil
Sea salt

PREPARATION

On your Heavy Duty Spit build a charcoal fire approx 2 hours before starting to roast.

Attach a 10-12 kg suckling pig onto the spit bar and attach prongs, back brace and leg holders to the pig. Using a heavy-duty trussing needle and twine, tie the pig to the spit behind the head and close to the tail. Stuff the belly with 10 crushed garlic cloves, 5 rosemary sprigs and 5 thyme sprigs. Using a small trussing needle and twine, sew the belly shut. Brush the pig with olive oil.

Place the spit over the fire on your Heavy Duty Spit and spread the coals so they are under the shoulder and thighs. Turn on the spit.

Set an oven thermometer next the pig. The ambient temperature should stay between 110 and 120 C. Add a layer of fresh coals every 30 minutes, as needed; although you will likely use 10 kgs of coals, it’s a good idea to keep up to 20 kgs on hand. Roast the pig for about 2-3 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the shoulder and rear haunch registers 65 C.

Remove the spit from the heat and let the pig rest for 30 minutes. Transfer the pig to a large work surface lined with heavy-duty foil. Untie the pig from the spit. Discard the twine, peel off the skin, carve the meat, sprinkle with sea salt and serve.

Recipe 8: Charcoal Grilled Steak Recipe

No party is complete without great food that unites people. Good food can be outsourced but when you really want the crowd to actively participate, consider organising a BBQ party.

Everybody loves a BBQ party and the cooking spot often becomes the focal point where the hosts and the guests mingle and help out in the cooking process together. BBQ parties are just perfect for outdoor get-togethers with lots of gossip, laughter and friendly banter.

However, in a BBQ party menu, the most important part is, of course, the meat that has been cooked to perfection on a BBQ charcoal grill.

It can become a bit confusing here as some like their meat soft, some like it medium while still others like their meat firm and well-cooked.

Charcoal Grilled Steak Recipe – The Basics

When you want to serve the perfectly charcoal grilled steak, it helps to consider a few essential aspects.

The first is the thickness. For steaks that are really thick, the grilling time will increase accordingly. At this point, do keep in mind how the guests like their meat. For those who like it rare, remove the steaks early, and grill a little longer for those who like it really well-cooked.

The temperature of the grill is another important aspect to consider. Be sure to pre-heating the grill. This allows the meat to cook slowly without getting burnt.

A pre-heated, sizzling grill is also necessary for creating those beautiful burnt patterns on the surface as the steak hits the hot grill. If you can hold your palm 3cm above the hot grill for a couple of seconds without feeling too hot, the grill is ready.

The third important consideration is the temperature of the steak itself. Never put your steaks on a hot grill directly from the fridge without them to come to room temperature. Allow it to sit covered for at least 20 to 30 minutes prior to grilling.

Charcoal Grilled Steak Recipe – The Ingredients

Grilling is a simple and quick way to create a delicious, filling meal without too many ingredients. All you require are the steaks, salt, pepper, some oregano for added seasoning and olive oil.

Charcoal Grilled Steak Recipe – The Process

Pre-heat your charcoal BBQ grill per the above instructions.

Brush both sides of the steak with olive oil and season them well with salt, pepper and oregano.

Place them on the grill and cook one side for 4 to 5 minutes until it is slightly charred and develops a lovely brown colour. Turn them over and cook for the required time depending on how you like the meat.

In general, if the steaks are 3cm thick, grill them further for 3 to 5 minutes for rare, 5 to 7 minutes for medium and 8 to 10 minutes for a well cooked steak.

Remove and transfer the steaks to a cutting board, cover with foil and let them rest for 5 minutes. This will allow the meat to soak in all the juice.

Slice as desired and serve with veggies and mashed potatoes.
